i think for me that's more true of american beauty - which i absolutely loathed - and probably some of that loathing splashed on to fight club - but i think both are instance of mainstream commercial holliywood 'playing' indie without really being brave enough to have indie sensibilities

Sounds a lot like the way I feel about American Beauty but I did enjoy Fight Club personally. That said, my vote goes to Carrie without a second of hesitation.
